Each figure is intricately cast wearing robes finely incised with floral scrolls and geometric patterns. The
first represents Sachen Kunga Nyingpo seated in dhyanasana with his right hand in varada mudra and
the left hand in vitarka mudra. He is identified by the inscription in Tibetan by his feet that translates as
"Homage to the great Sakyapa". The other is seated on a double-lotus pedestal holding a vajra in his right
hand and a gantha in his left.
